| FYO-00052 | Different Eyes, Different Life? - Focus on Visual Impairment | F | C | 5 | 10 | |
| This module is designed for students who may be interested in supporting blind and partially sighted students while studying at Keele. The aim is to raise awareness among the student community of the effects of visual impairment, the barriers faced by people with sight loss and what techniques can be adopted to assist in the removal of these barriers. The module is taught by specialist staff from Staffordshire A.S.S.I.S.T. ( Autism and Sensory Support In Staffordshire) who have been working with the university for many years in the support of blind and partially sighted students. Course Content Through lively, informal workshops the following topics will be covered : * basic structure of the eye, * how we see and how vision is measured * common eye conditions and their effects on vision, * definition and degrees of visual impairment, * how people with a visual impairment get around independently * what is meant by orientation and mobility skills * how to act as a sighted guide. * Barriers to accessing written/visual information * How someone with sight loss can access written information * Introduction to Braille and tactile diagrams * Modifying materials * The role of specialist support workers * A brief overview of the Disability Discrimination Act * Domestic skills You will gain understanding of the barriers experienced as a result of sight loss and you will learn how to be a sighted guide, write a mobility route and test it out on peers. Through simulated exercises you will learn how blind and partially sighted people make use of long canes, symbol canes and guide dogs. | ||||||
